warring states careerist

Chapter 494
The name of Leyang is naturally heard, one is the allusion of Leyang's son's wife, and the other is that the Mohists have always regarded Wei as the first power in the early Warring States period, so it is impossible not to prepare for the Zhongshan Kingdom.

The ancestor of Leyang was from the Song Dynasty. Song Daigong gave birth to Gong Zijin, who was born to Le Yang's father, and later generations took Le as their surname.

The Le clan was also one of the three surnames in the Song Dynasty. Leyang was a distant relative of the Le clan in the Song Dynasty. When they attacked Zhongshan, Leyang’s son, Leshu, was in Zhongshan. Zhongshan chopped Leshu into meat sauce. To punish Le Yang as a general to attack Zhongshan.

In order to show his loyalty, or for his ambition to become famous, Le Yang ate his son's meat to show his loyalty to Weihou.

Therefore, there is often a joke saying that during Wei Wenhou's time, some generals and ministers killed wives, had children, sold horses, and worked as brokers, but they were all powerful for a while.

However, Le Yang ate his son's meat, which also made Wei Hou feel a little panicked: How could a person who can eat his son's meat for the sake of wealth and power be loyal to him?

It has only been a hundred years since Yi Ya sacrificed his son's flesh to Duke Huan of Qi. In the end, Duke Huan of Qi was starved to death by Yi Ya. After all, Marquis Wei did not dare to trust such a person.

Yue Chi is the son of Le Shu and the grandson of Le Yang.

It is suitable to listen to Gao Sunzi's general talk, and it should be that after the fall of Zhongshan Kingdom, Le Chi has been staying with Zhongshan Lord.

In this era, it is very common to bet on two sides. Leyang was sealed in Lingshou, which is the hometown of Zhongshan Kingdom. After the restoration of Zhongshan Kingdom, Lingshou was established as the capital, and the taste of this can be carefully tasted.

At that time, Marquis Wei was going to confer Zhongshan to Prince Chi, but because of the opposition of the nobles, he finally conferred it to Gongzi Zhi.

The current Lord Zhongshan is the younger brother of Marquis Wei. Zhongshan State is sandwiched between Zhao State, and it is an enclave with Wei State. All politics are governed by Gong Zizhi.

After the Zhongshan Kingdom was annihilated, the officials of the Zhongshan Kingdom and the Lord Zhongshan went into hiding. Now many years have passed, and it is time to restore the country.

The Mohists defeated the Yue Kingdom in Sishang, nominally helping many small countries to recover, and because Qu Jiang and others were in Gaoliu of the Zhao State, they had frequent contacts with the elders of the Zhongshan Kingdom.

In order to deal with Wei Guo, the strategy of ambush from ten sides was applied. Even though Wei Guo's national power at this time is considered unparalleled in the world, Wei Guo is bound to be powerless after these sets of combined punches, and may decline rapidly.

Le Chi's visit this time is also to be able to negotiate with the Mohists on conditions such as loans and weapons aid. Grandson Gao has been dealing with the affairs of the Zhongshan Kingdom, so he knows something about it.

However, when it comes to this matter, Qin Huali said: "Among the younger Mohists nowadays, Yisi is the most local. Nowadays, there are more and more people who say that they should live a stable life and don't make revolution in the world. They say that they invest in Zhao and Shu every year. There is too much money in other places. Now that we have to add the state affairs of Zhongshan, I am afraid many people will have objections.”

Although the money provided by the Mohists to various countries basically comes from trade and official handicrafts, after all, too many locals have become Mohists, so they will naturally be biased towards local interests.

The first generation of Mohists were collected by Mozi from his travels in the world, and the concept of people in the world is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

In the second generation, after the Battle of Shangqiu, the Mohists began to publicize extensively, and most of the people from the world were attracted to Sishang.

But in the third generation, the number of local people is increasing day by day, and some voices have a market.

Gong Zaoye was quite touched by this, and said with a wry smile: "There are always people who take the meaning out of context and say that Zi Mozi said that it was not an attack. Or some people say that the appropriate route is wrong. There are both public statements and some undercurrents."

Shi smiled and shook his head, wondering if the people present had the same thoughts, but he always wanted to reiterate some things.

So he said: "For example, in the case of Chen Cai in Chu State, we can pull in a mutual benefit ally by investing hundreds of people. If there is no restraint from Chu State, and Wei State sends troops, how many people do we need to invest?"

"Don't fight the war in your own home. This is the idea that local people in Sishang should have when they seek profit. The same is true in Zhongshan Country. If we invest a part of the money, we can save many people from dying. For the future situation of the world It's also beneficial."

Gong Zaoye smiled and said: "Everyone here supports you. This matter is not serious at this time, but it must be resolved. It is mainly the caliber of the Propaganda Department. After that, there are some problems that need to be solved urgently.”

"In the past, Feigong united Sishang as one, but now it is time to boldly say the words of benefiting the world. Feigong is a kind of benefiting the world, but benefiting the world is not just Feigong."

Qin Huali and the others all nodded, and said: "This matter will eventually be resolved, but not now, let's wait."

Grandson Gao said: "As for the matter on the side of Zhongshan Kingdom, I think I should let Shi go to discuss with Le Chi. Yi Qi is quite respectful and has mentioned his name many times. Even if he is younger, he has admired him for a long time. The second is that although the tone has been set, it is better to grasp some specific details. Finally, it is also to show the attitude of our Mohists, and it is most suitable for us to discuss."

After thinking about it for a while, I also felt that it was most appropriate for me to talk, so I set the tone with everyone.

In the final analysis, the matter of Zhongshan State is only an external continuation of the Mohist's affairs in Sishang, and it is an indispensable part of the ambush against Wei State.

Although Zhongshan Kingdom was built by Bai Di, it is already integrated with the Central Plains culture under the cultural and institutional advantages of the Central Plains.Except that because it was built by Baidi, it was not within the Zhou Tianzi system, Bozinan could not be named a prince, but Bo Zinan could only be called king, the rest of the writing and customs are similar to those of the Central Plains.

It cannot be said that Hebei Province is not China, let alone that Shijiazhuang is not part of Kyushu.

Originally, in history, the Mohists had contact with the Zhongshan Kingdom, and left behind a commonly used idiom allusion - speechless.

It should be that after Mozi died and Meng Sheng let the Mohist regiment be wiped out in Yangcheng, a Mohist named Shi came to Zhongshan because Zhao Guo entered Qin Zhongshan Kingdom, and had a fight with Sima Yu, the Prime Minister of Zhongshan Kingdom The debate on "non-aggression".

To sum it up, Sima Xi asked the Mozhe teacher, do you, a courtier, also object to Lord Zhongshan's attack on the Kingdom of Yan?Master Mo Zhe asked Sima Xi if Zhao Guo attacked Zhongshan, would you support it?He also believes that in terms of the world, Sima Xi is not against the rule of the weak and the strong in all countries in the world, but against the Zhongshan country not becoming a strong eater. To accept this rule, you have to bear everything in this rule. Avoid bad ones, so Sima Xi was speechless.

Time also, potential also.Today’s Mohists can’t only rely on their knowledge to talk to others. As a Mohist, they often don’t need to talk too much about the truth when negotiating with some people. For example, when Chu State asked the Mohist to send troops this time, it took the initiative to use the Mohist’s “morality” To prove the injustice of the prince.

This time when negotiating with Yuechi, there is no need to talk about too many reasons. If you want to come to the reason why the Mohists want to help, Zhongshan Kingdom must have already thought of the reason first.

When Shi Shi stepped into the room where the band was waiting, the young band stood up to greet him with a trace of nervousness and a bit of excitement about meeting the idol he admired.

When he was three or five steps away from Shi, Le Chi actively extended his right hand in accordance with some habits and etiquette of the Mohist school, waiting for Shi to shake hands with him.

The handshake ceremony has long existed, and it is a very intimate etiquette. For example, when Lin Xiangru's benefactor, Miao Xian, had a private meeting with King Yan, King Yan took the initiative to shake hands with Miao Xian and whispered that Miao Xian wanted to make friends with him.

However, the Mohists carried forward this kind of etiquette, because the Mohists did not observe etiquette, so they naturally needed their own set of etiquette to counteract the original etiquette that was deeply rooted in their bones.

Shi smiled and stretched out his hand, shook hands with the orchestra pit, pointed to an unused wooden bench and said, "Please sit down."

The orchestra stood until he sat down, and then sat down on the chair.

Not long after he was born, his father was cooked and killed by Lord Zhongshan. At that time, he had just become a Mohist.

In the blink of an eye, 20 years have passed, and Shi's reputation has grown. Le Chi has read many Mohist articles, and quite agrees with many of them.In particular, Le Chi liked the new ideas of Mohism about the liberation of human nature, the concept of loyalty, and the definition of courage and wisdom.

Regardless of his background, Shi's life so far is exciting enough, and since this is still an era in which his blood is left behind, Shi, the son of a shoemaker, is enough to make Le Chi full of admiration.

Coming here from Zhongshan, Le Chi not only bears the king's mandate, but also has his own ideas to display his ambitions, and some young people are enthusiastic about new ideas.

Sometimes even if you are born in a noble family, you will have many fantastic fantasies about some novel ideas. As for whether it will be the same when you are older, it is hard to say.

Since he wanted to talk about business, Shi was not curious to ask some questions that shouldn't be asked, such as why Le Chi would still be loyal to Zhongshan Jun who killed his father, such as Le Yang's role in this incident of Zhongshan's restoration of the country .

He can roughly guess it.

The two sides first talked some nonsense, such as Wei Gongzi's injustice and inhumanity, the people of Zhongshan suffered a lot from it, and the Mohist's non-attack is righteousness and so on.

Of course this is nonsense.

The doctor has a family, but the common people have no country.

The exploitation of the Zhongshan people by the Zhongshan nobles may not be more fragrant than the exploitation of Wei Guogong Zizhi.

It is not the people of Zhongshan who want to restore the country, but only those Zhongshan elders who lost their power and interests due to the destruction of the country. They are the main force who want to restore the country, and they are also the foundation that can support the restoration of the country.

The nonsense that Le Chi said involved the moral foundation of Mohism, and some of them could only be expressed without saying a word.

Le Chi really saw the person he admired. Although he was prepared, his heart was still beating wildly, fearing that if he said something wrong, he would be blamed or angry.

When he talked about the key points of these nonsense, seeing that Shi was silent, some people who admired him might hate his nervousness, so he whispered: "Is there something wrong with my words?"
